WHEREAS, it appears the 0 P Contracting, Inc. of Champlin, Minnesota,

On Bid Item No. 31, i.e. "Remove and Replace Chain Link Fence (Highway
100)" said bidder showed on his proposal a unit price of $1,200.00 per
linear foot, which when multiplied by the estimated quantity of 130
linear feet would result in an extended total of $156,000.00 rather
than the $1,560.00 total shown on the proposal.
On a separate statement, submitted on the day following the bid
opening, said bidder certifies that the $1,200.00 per linear foot unit
price is in error and that the intent of his proposal is to do said
work at the unit price of $12.00 per linear foot as indicated by his
total bid of $1,560.00 for this item.
AND, WHEREAS, it is the opinion of the City Council that the correct
total amount of the bid submitted by 0 P Contracting is $274,250.88, and that
allowing said bidder to correct said error does not give the low bidder an
advantage over other bidders; and
